Council reviews communications upgrades: newsletter, website, atrium monitor and Granicus auto‑minutes
Summary
City staff described improvements to resident communications, including a redesigned quarterly newsletter, website work, a public atrium monitor with rolling updates, and plans for automated minutes via Granicus; the council did not take formal action.
Corcoran City meeting discussion covered planned upgrades to resident communications and internal meeting tools, including a redesigned quarterly newsletter, website improvements, a public monitor in the atrium and plans to use Granicus for automated meeting minutes (date not specified).
A participant praised the city newsletter: "The newsletter was outstanding. You guys was freaking awesome," Speaker 1 (role/title not specified) said, and asked about printing costs. Another speaker responded that printing "was actually a little bit more than a thousand bucks," without specifying the exact amount.
Staff indicated they are taking a "deep dive" into the city's website and are preparing to use Granicus for training and digital services. "Granicus training has been happening ... we'll have that in Granicus. Auto minutes. Eventually," Speaker 3 (role/title not specified) said. The council also discussed a public display for the atrium similar to an Emergency Operations Center rolling update, which staff said will show community information and upcoming events.
Members also noted an upcoming public‑safety outreach item described by staff as "truck safety," which a speaker said would occur "the 20 seventh" (as stated in the meeting). The remark was not accompanied by a formal calendar item adopted during the meeting.
No formal votes or budget approvals for the communications items were recorded in the transcript. The meeting adjourned after the discussion; a motion to adjourn was seconded and approved by voice vote.
